These Jabra Elite 8 Active Earbuds are an EXCELLENT choice! They have now supplanted my previous buds as my all time favorite!
First and foremost, the fit and comfort are excellent! Most other buds (and I get it, I am a bigger guy) have not fit particularly well. Usually, when I am at the gym, I have reach up several times to re-seat other buds. These? Nope, they fit perfectly and stay seated. I forgot how nice it was to have good fitting buds for the first time in a LONG time!
OK, so they fit well, but how do they sound? Short answer: They sound great! The bass is great... Very powerful but not overwhelming. The mids are clean, clear and defined. The highs are crisp and clean without being piercing. In the app, you can choose the standard default EQ settings, or you can create your own custom EQ and save it as whatever you'd like to name it.
Another great feature is the noise cancelling. You have the option of NC off, ANC and HearThrough. The ANC is great for the gym. It blocks out a good deal of background noise. However, were I to use these jogging or biking or working, I would leave them in HearThrough mode. That allows for you to be aware of your environment while still enjoying your music.
I am not going to get into the specs since you can get those from the BB or Jabra site, but from a user perspective, I can and would reccomend them to a friend!

Retro style and superior sound that go great together~anywhere. Make a statement with powerful sound and distinctive retro style. The JBL Authentics 200 speaker recalls JBL~s iconic ~70s styles~ featuring a Quadrex grille, custom leather-like enclosure, and premium aluminum frame, now with even better performance and versatility. As impressive as the retro design looks in any room, it sounds even better. Turn up the music and you~ll get big, balanced sound, amazing clarity, and deep bass. With Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa* available simultaneously, you can play your favorite music, control your smart home devices, and more, hands-free, using just your voice.

Wow! Great Little Speaker With Cool Aesthetic!

This JBL Authentics 200 Smart Home Speaker is absolutely brilliant!
I have been a huge JBL fan for a very long time. Having said that, this little speaker performs ABOVE my lofty expectatons!
From the beginning, the unit came well packaged and had a quality feel to it. Some companies have been switching to a 100% recycled "lite" packaging and to my eye, I don't like it. This was packaged in a solid box and well protected in an open clamshell within the box. Inside, the speaker, power cable and the ubiquotous instuctions.
Set was incredibly simple. Download the app, plug it in, power it on and pair. From opening box to listening was just a few minutes.
Once it was ready, you have multiple music platforms to choose from. Once you have your preferred platform, be prepared musical awesome!
I chose to go into the app and change the standard flat EQ to the classic high highs and lows and mid-middles. I thought classic configuration was a nice homage to this throwback designed speaker.
Great sound! Highs are crisp without being overbearing or harsh, mids are clean and present while the bass... The bass is stunning for such a small platform!
This speaker does have native hositing for Amazon and Google assistants.
End of the day, this is an excellent choice, especially if you have a "throwback" aesthetic.
I would whole-heartedly reccomend to a friend!

You've got enough on your plate, let Yale get the door with the Yale Assure Lock 2. With multiple ways to unlock, the ability to easily share and track entry codes and advanced Auto-Lock with DoorSense, this Wi-Fi smart lock gives you one less thing to worry about. With built-in Wi-Fi, you can easily check in on home, from wherever you are.

This is my second Yale smartlock, so I knew I would not be dissapointed, and I was not! The Yale - Assure Lock 2, Key-Free Pushbutton Lock with Wi-Fi is first and foremost, a high-quality deadbolt security lock. I was impressed with the overall build quality. It is a heavy-duty lock tht just happens to be smart!
Installation was really no more difficult than a standard dead-bolt. A couple screwdrivers, a little time and a little patience is all it took. Most anyone who is even remotely handy should have no problem. That said, if you do need help, they offer support via telephone and e-mail.
One of my favorite things with this type of technology is in being able to create differnt codes for differnet needs. I am going ot use this on my vacation rental house so that I can have each guest use the last 4 numbers of their cell phone for access. ANd I can have it expire at a pre-determined time to help assure security and access.
End of the day, this is an excellent option for ANY homeowner or renter. I would (and have)reccomend this to a friend.

The ultimate addition to your percussion massage experience. Compatible with all Hypervolt models, the Heated Head Attachment helps to relax tight muscles and maintain your full range of motion, providing an even more effective massage.
Posted by: Posted1
The Hyperice Hypervolt Heated Head is a miust have if you have a compatible Hyperice massger. I have the Hypervolt 2 Pro and as a standalone, it comes with a nice selection of "stock" heads. That said, untill I hd the opportunity to try this, I had NO IDEA what I was missing.
First off, it's a simple device to prepare and use... In the box is the head, a USB C cable nd the ubiquitous simple manual. I plugged it in, the LED indicator lit up. Within an hour, it was fully charged. According to the manufacturer, a fully charged battery will last 90 minutes. At first glance, that doesn't sound like much but it really is. A few minutes getting your muscles worked by this and the Hypervolt 2 Pro, and you are good to go. I don't see charging it more than once every 4 to 6 weeks.
On the side of the unit, you have one power/heat level button and 4 total LED's. Press the power/level button for a couple seconds and the head powers on. The "power on" LED lights up. Press the same button once, heat level one LED lights, press again and the second heat level LED lights up, and a third press goes to level three. Once at level 3, another press goes back to level one... Lather, rinse repeat. To turn it off, press the same button for a couple seconds and it powers down. Hard to get much more simple.
OK, pop the head on and go to town on your muscles. The heat makes an immediate difference in loosening up the muscles.
End of the day, if you have a compatible massager, I HIGHLY reccomend this device. It's a bargain for what you get!

Wow! Lightweight Indeed!

Wow! The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse is indeed that... SUPERLIGHT!
In the box you'll find the mouse, USB reciever, USB extension adaptor, USB C cable, surface prep cloth and optional grip tape. For my use and needs, the default configuration is fine. On the bottom of the mouse is a storge area for the USB reciever.
Set up was as exoected, simple. I loaded the Logitech G Hub SW, plugged in the mouse, paired it, loaded latest SW and was up and running. The Logitech G Hub SW allows you to customize most everything about the mouse... X Axis, Y Axis, Lit Off Speed, refresh rate (for both wired and wireless) as well as multiple options for the buttons. As mentioned previously, the default setup is fine for me as I am a casual gamer. My 21-year-old son is a US Navy Nuclear Electricians Mate and is by default, a techno-geek and a hevy gamer. After him using it and customezing it for a couple days, he was quite impressed. For the casual user, this is great, for the heavy gamer, it's awesome.
Overall feel of the mouse is great. Nice quality, great tactile feedback, responsive and LIGHTWEIGHT!
End of the day, this is a great mouse for every day use and an even better mouse for the hardcore gamer!

The Tablo OTA Antenna DVR is going to be a game-changer for me!
In the past, when camping with the family in our RV, I can not tell you haw many NHL regular season and playoff games I missed since we would often be out boating, fishing, jet skiing or just making smores and drinking beer. The time with family was more important...
Then along came Tablo OTA Antenna DVR... I have installed this in my RV with my hot spot and digital OTA. Now I'll be able to record the games, enjoy my time with the family and after everyone else goes to bed... The wife can read her book and I will catch up on the game!
Setup was simple as I already had the built in dgital OTA.
I have not had a chance to test it out at any "live" campsites yet, but my experience is that most places we go to, we get a decent signal.
Froma techie standpoint, it has a built in 128 gig storage. If that's not enough, you can attach up to an 8 TB external drive. That should provide ample room for recording TONS of content.
End of the day, this will be a great upgrade for me and I can now camp AND catch the games!

The Sennheiser - All-Day Clear Slim - OTC Self-Fitting Hearing Aid is an excellent OTC choice if you have the need.
My 72 year old mom moved in with us a couple years ago and both the wife and I (as well as our late-teens kids) noticed a gradual increase in TV and nusic volume coming from the basement. That in combination with us noticing an increasing presence of her asking for clarification during conversations, we were able to convince her that she may want to consider looking into hearing aids. She finally agreed and we are ALL so glad she did!
Inside the box, you'll find the usual suspects... The hearing aids, charger, cable, multiple tips, cleaning kit and a nice bonus of a casNiether of them being overly technical, I was impressed with how (relatively) quickly they had the hearing aids going.
As for quality, Sennheiser is universally recognized towards the upper end in consumer grade devices. This Clear Slim has a quality feel, look and design.
End of the day mom loves them! she admitted she did not realiuze quite how far her hearing loss became. The conversations have been more engaging and theTV/music from the basement has almost dissapeared.
I wouldreccomend them to a friend!

Say goodbye to hours spent sweeping and mopping hard floors with our Floor One S6 Extreme Pro. The latest and greatest addition to the Tineco floorcare product line, S6 Extreme Pro combines a mop and vacuum with scrubbing and suction capabilities to pick up wet and dry messes. In smart mode, sensors detect how clean the floor is and adjusts power in real time until the floor is left spotless. It removes the need for adjusting power mode and extends battery life by nearly double. A dual edge cleaning brush lets you clean right up against the wall and not miss an inch of your floor. Track your cleaning progress and battery life on a full-color LCD screen that helps guide your cleaning routine. Includes: Three Microfiber Brush Rollers, Two Dry Filters, One bottle of Tineco cleaning solution and Charging Dock.

The Tineco Floor One S6 Extreme Pro is a decent choice if you have the need.
Unpacking and assembly was simple. Just a few minutes from slicing the tape to fully assembled. I let it charge for a few hours while I ran some errands. Came home, filled with warm water and the Tineco soap and went to work.
The Tineco Floor One S6 Extreme Pro is a real time saver. Before using this, our hard floors required sweeping first and mopping (or wet swifter moping) second. With this, a cursory walk through and removal of larger items the dogs or cats may have left after playing with them, it's one simple action. This picks up most smaller items while simultaneously cleaning and vacuuming with water.
As for battery life, we have about 1000 square foot of hard flooring in our utility, laundry, kitchen, breakfast nook and den. The battery was easily able to handle that on in charge.
End of the day, this is a great choice if you have the need. It is a little in the pricey side, but remembering the value of your time, well worth it.

Powered by the Intel Evo platform, the 2-in-1 high-performance Acer Chromebook Spin 714 empowers users to stay productive anywhere with its 16:10 14~ WUXGA touch display, 13th Gen Intel Core i5 processor, QHD webcam and military-grade durability. At just over 3 lbs., this sleek machine is not only fast and efficient, but it features a bevy of features such as a quick-chargeable 10-hour battery and a 360 convertible hinge so you have the flexibility to work in any mode.

The Acer - Spin 714 2-in-1 14" Touch-Screen Chromebook with Intel i5 1335U, 8Gig Memory and 256GB Solid State Driveis a solid choice.
Acer has really stepped up with this unit. This Chromebook has solid performance, a solid feel yet still lightweight and easily portable and manueverable. The Chromebook DNA has always relied more on cloud and online access and less on locat storage. Having said that, on first look one might think the 8 Gig memory and 256 Gig SSD drive might feel a bit slim, but for general use, it's more than adequate.
With no moving parts (other than the hinge between screen and keyboard) this a great for portability. As for the keyboard (see pics), it has a good backlight. Very nice for the late-night work sessions while your spouse counting sheep.
The screen is bright and viewable from multiple angles. While not 4K, the Full HD is perfectly adequate for most all internet and casual use.
The processer is a nice step up. It will be more than necessary for most all casual use.
The Spin 714 also comes with a nice case. Handy for protecting the device while traveling.
End of the day, this is a great option for casual and student use.

In competitive gaming, every frame matters. Introducing Acer's KA272 gaming monitor - the Full HD resolution monitor that can keep up with your game play. Through AMD FreeSync technology, the game~s frame rate is determined by your graphics card, not the fixed refresh rate of the monitor, giving you a serious competitive edge. Plus, users can enjoy comfortable viewing experience while gaming via flicker-less and low dimming display. The design saves space on your desk and lets you place multiple monitors side by side to build a seamless big-screen display.

Very Good Budget-friendly Monitor
on August 2, 2023
Posted by: Posted1
The Acer - KA272 Ebi 27" IPS LED FreeSync Monitor is a nice, budget friendly entry level monitor. While it's listed as a "gaming monitor", it's probably better for the casual gamer and not the hardcore competitive gamer.
That said, it is NOT a bad choice, but it does not have the 4/8K that some hardcore gamers would prefer. But it is Full HD. Another decent feature, the refreshrate is a solid 100Hz. 60Hz is generally decent for casual gaming and internet surfing. The 100Hz is even better. Again, the hardcore gamers would generally prefer 120/240/360Hz rates but the casual user would not really see any difference.
From box to fully assembled was maybe 3 or minutes. Grab base, attach stand, tighten single screw and attach monitor. Simple.
At 27", it has plenty of real estate. Easy to see from multiple angles and bright at 25 candela PSM, it was easily bright enough to be seen in my West facing (see pics) office.
It has 1 HDMI input and one VGA. Another might be nice for some folks, but for a basic gamer/PC monitor, its perfectly fine.
Another nice feature is the 3 year manufacturer warranty. Would reccomend registering it for best support.
End of the day, this is a great monitor for everyday use and casual gaming, especially for the price.

how do I get my mouse to move properly on my intel computer screen
I'm not sure I understand the question. You should be able to plug the USB into your PC, turn your mouse to the "on" position and have it operate no problems.
